  • The A13 chip in Apple's cheapest iPhone SE beats the most expensive Androids

    And the cheapest gold is shinier than the most expensive Fool's Gold.

  • Huawei caught using DSLR photos to promote its photography contest

    Aren't they the same knockoff Apple company who had people take selfies with DSLR cameras for their ads?

    Not surprised the length these companies go to make $$. Any company that makes knockoff products has ZERO values.







    Yup that was Huawei. Didn't hear about this story? Probably because the media only cares about Apple. The real Apple.




    Look closer those aren't Macs, iPhones, AirPods or iPads.

  • Apple unveils new iPhone SE priced at just $399

    So they're re-releasing iPhone 8? WTF? We're supposed to be excited about it? Why not just call it what it is: iPhone 9.




    Seriously was it that hard to do Apple?

  • Apple's new iPhone 12 may look like an iPad Pro; smaller HomePods in 2020

    Yeah, the big HomePod was SUCH a hit, we need a small one. 

    Make it work with a typical TV or shut it down. 
    I help but get the impression that you don’t get what the HomePod is for. 
    I think part of his criticism is precisely that it should be for more. It would be nice if they widened its scope a bit. A smaller version makes sense as long as it doesn't cost a fortune to have a main unit and a few smaller secondary units for smaller rooms. 
    I think the proper comparison of the HomePod is more to the Sonos One series, and not google home or Alexa. They were designed first as quality speakers, then as assistants. Amazon and Google speakers were designed with inverse priorities.  



    Why don't people get this?

    I think the media in general is the problem. When Apple released HomePod they called it an Echo competitor even though HomePod was in development before Echo.

    Hard to tell when someone is joking or serious online but this argument springs up often. 
    To be fair... you introduced word "overpriced" into this thread... and I further derailed the conversation by talking about the millionaire who is the subject of the article. My bad... ;)

    But anyway... you're right.  It's amazing all the things we can do with the device in our pockets.

    It reminds me of this Radio Shack ad from the 90's.  Almost every device on this page can be replaced in some form with the iPhone today!

    Wow I misread your comment as the "Radio Shack ad from the 80s" and my mind had no problem with it. If you think about it, the 90s weren't that long ago yet this ad looks like it could have been printed much, much earlier. Crazy how forward Apples products brought the world.

    And even today I'd rather have an iPhone than all those specialty products combined.

    There is an old picture of all the products iPhone has replaced sitting on a table. I can't find it but it's eye opening.

    But I did find this:
